"There is no completely acceptable substitute"

Real experiences from our historic client liquidation journals. Here is why families, trustees, and attorneys have made PEERLESS their referral choice for over 25 years.

01
Pillar One

Knowledge & Experience

"Even after paying the commission, we promise the return will be higher, nothing left over, and someone else will have done all the work!"

Estate liquidation is an overwhelming task. Our merchandising, research, and pricing experience maximize total return while taking the entire burden off family shoulders.

02
Pillar Two

Professional Presentation

"Everyone is entitled to the same excellent service regardless of the monetary value of their belongings."

Whether a West Hills mansion or a modest vintage bungalow, we stage every estate with museum-grade care. Over 100 eager buyers often queue up on opening morning.

03
Pillar Three

Service Above & Beyond

"Cleaning from top to bottom, removing waste, pressure washing — to us, it’s all part of doing a good job."

We transform cluttered spaces into welcoming showcase galleries. When you entrust us with the key, we handle sorting, hauling, and deep cleaning from start to finish.

04
Pillar Four

Managing Sensitive Details

"Sensitive care of more than 40 heirs, record-breaking turnout, and 5 home offers on Monday morning."

Family dynamics and multi-generation estates require tact and diplomacy. We preserve keepsakes, provide transparent reporting, and help attract qualified home buyers.

05
Pillar Five

Exceeding Expectations

"'How much is our share?' she asked. 'That is your share,' we replied."

Our commission-based model means our incentives are 100% aligned with yours. We don't settle for low buyout offers — we drive top-dollar competitive bidding from motivated buyers.

06
Pillar Six

Peace of Mind on Deadlines

"4 deadline-critical days... her check was thousands more than the buyout dealer's offer."

When home closing dates are imminent or out-of-state family members are coordinating from across the country, we execute with precision and leave the property in realtor-ready condition.

"It's taken care of. There's nothing you need to do."

During a severe winter ice storm, an unoccupied West Hills estate suffered burst pipes, flooding ceilings and sending water rushing into the basement.

Our Senior Project Manager didn't panic the out-of-state client. He called the Fire Department, coordinated with the city Water Bureau to shut off the main, and brought the PEERLESS team in on a Saturday night with mops and buckets to save the historic hardwood floors.

He only called the family when he could deliver the words every homeowner hopes to hear: "It's taken care of." The sale proceeded seamlessly on schedule.

"We work strictly on commission. We do all the work, pay all the expenses, and write the client a check at the end. All they do is give us a key."

Gary Newton, President & Kim Russell, Project Manager
